Default Pulls Right

Stang pulls to the right all the time. I need to turn the steering wheel in order to keep it in line going straight but as soon as I let it go it pulls to the right and if I dont quickly grab the wheel and pull it left it will run off the road. Any ideas what could be the problem?

First check the air pressure in the tires.

Then get an alignment. That's probably the problem.

so tire pressure has nothing to do with it? What about tire balance?

If the pressure in the right tires is way low, it could make it pull a little bit. But in your case, it sounds like the alignment is way effed up.

And wheels out of balance would give more of a shaking/shuddering effect.

if neither tire pressure or alignment dont fix it try swapping your front tires, your right tire may have conicity
